More Shots of SP 2472
Author: Barstool

The 2472 made three round trips today, the first at 11 A.m, the second at 1 P.M. and the third at 3 P.M., all three trips were sold out and there was a good crowd in front of the depot to look over the 2472 between runs...2472 goes on the road again on May 23rd and May 25th

For the third trip of the day on the 2472, my son and I rode in the cab of the 2472 both down and back between Sunol and Niles, the two guys you see in these shots were handling the third trip and were talking back and forth as the  2472 made demands and the engine just did what it does best...It was hot in the cab and when the trip was over, I was damp but not wet, but in this day and age, getting a ride in steam power is hard to beat, a trip to well remember....

I'm just blown away by the greenery everywhere and people wearing tee shirts.  I'm still waiting for just about any sign of spring in the northeast - they're talking about the possibility of snow showers today!  Looks like everyone was having a great time.  I was out there last year for the five tanker locomotives in June, and it was most enjoyable.
